Flames raced up the scaffolding that had been erected for exterior renovation and, fueled by strong winds, spread to six neighboring buildings. Within three hours, what began as a small blaze had escalated to a Level 5 fire, the highest on Hong Kong\u2019s five-tier alarm scale.<\/p><p>Mr. Yu, a resident, had the doors and windows of his home tightly closed when the fire started and did not hear the alarm. It was only when his wife called that he realized the danger and fled, managing to grab only his mobile phone, identification documents, wallet, and keys. He was born in 1951 and had survived the devastating Tung Tau Estate fire in Kowloon that same year, one of Hong Kong\u2019s major disasters. That conflagration had destroyed thousands of homes and left more than 10,000 people homeless. He never imagined he would again encounter a disastrous fire 74 years later.<\/p><p>At the height of the blaze, Pipi Lau (\u5289\u677e\u84ee), a skilled floral arranger, happened to be in Tai Po buying flowers. Though she did not live at Wang Fuk Court, she was deeply anxious: Both of her sons are firefighters. Her younger son was stationed in the district where the fire occurred, and her elder in Kowloon. Though regulations normally prevent two siblings from working in the same district, her son stationed in Kowloon was immediately redeployed to Tai Po to help, underscoring the severity of the disaster. In fact, her elder son had already entered the fire scene. Despite the family\u2019s group chat, he still had not confirmed his safety by the early hours of the following morning.<\/p><p>Cordons restricted access at the scene. Unsure whether they would be allowed inside, Tzu Chi volunteers from nearby districts nevertheless arrived, remaining outside the perimeter, ready to assist in any way they could.

The estate was undergoing exterior renovation when the fire broke out. Flames erupted on the bamboo scaffolding on one of the buildings. The scaffold\u2019s safety netting failed to resist the fire, and highly flammable Styrofoam used to protect glass doors and windows only fueled the blaze. Shattered glass allowed flames to spread indoors, sweeping through seven of the eight buildings. It took more than 43 hours to extinguish the conflagration. Only one building was spared, thanks to a combination of distance from the fire, wind direction, and the firefighters\u2019 efforts.<\/p><p>The disaster ultimately claimed 161 lives, prompting the Hong Kong government to provide a condolence payment of 200,000 Hong Kong dollars (US$25,700) to each bereaved family. Authorities additionally distributed an immediate emergency fund of 10,000 Hong Kong dollars (US$1,300) to each affected household, followed by living subsidies of 100,000 Hong Kong dollars. To support those left homeless by the blaze, the government also arranged for more than one thousand transitional housing units.<\/p><p>Cherina Sze (\u65bd\u980c\u9234), CEO of Tzu Chi Hong Kong, quickly mobilized the volunteer team in response to the disaster. Less than 24 hours later, they decided to distribute relief payments, though for a while they received no response from the authorities. Since they were not permitted to enter shelters, volunteers provided support from outside the perimeter, delivering water and dry food and bringing registration forms for aid.<\/p><p>Senior volunteer Tina Huang (\u9ec3\u9326\u79c0) recalled that volunteers, dressed in Tzu Chi uniforms, greeted and offered care to residents leaving the shelters. As night fell and temperatures dropped, they distributed blankets and scarves. \u201cListening to their stories, we deeply felt their suffering and the fragility of life,\u201d Huang said. \u201cWe are more than willing to listen, to provide hugs, and to do more for them.\u201d Despite their ordeal, many residents expressed gratitude for having survived.<\/p><p>On November 28, when the government began issuing official documentation for those affected by the fire, the team decided not to wait any longer and to use this identification to help register applications for relief payments.<\/p><p>On November 29, volunteers sent out messages announcing that relief payments\u201420,000 Hong Kong dollars for each bereaved family and 5,000 for each affected household\u2014would be distributed on December 6 and 7 at the Tzu Chi Hong Kong office in Kowloon Tong. Free medical consultations for affected residents and frontline rescue personnel were also started that day at the Tzu Chi Great Love Chinese Medicine Clinic on Nathan Road in Yau Ma Tei; these services continued through December 31.<\/p><p>Following the disaster, the government made Fung Leung Kit Memorial Secondary School, near the fire scene, available as a temporary center for evacuation and subsidy applications. Access was restricted to affected residents, so Tzu Chi volunteers stationed themselves under a tree outside, standing as they registered residents for relief payments. One passerby, noticing the volunteers on their feet and moved by their dedication, guided them to a space upstairs and provided two tables for their work. Government care team members also assisted by directing residents to the Tzu Chi registration area to complete their forms.<\/p><p>Huang recalled, \u201cFrom then on, the number of residents coming to us increased. We gradually expanded from two tables to four, and the registration process ran smoothly.\u201d<\/p><p>Registration took place both indoors and outdoors. Some residents were initially hesitant to provide personal information, but volunteers patiently explained the process and showed their Tzu Chi identification, gradually building trust. Eventually, some residents even notified their neighbors to come forward and register.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section

With volunteers handling registrations on the front lines and the logistics team coordinating behind the scenes, the branch was completely stretched. Recognizing how urgently residents needed help, Ma didn\u2019t want to miss a single call and turned to her mother, also a Tzu Chi volunteer, for help. \u201cShe and other senior volunteers quickly stepped in and were at the office providing support within an hour,\u201d Ma said.<\/p><p>Much of the work went unseen by outsiders. Paper records collected at the front lines had to be entered into computers, a task volunteers carried out from morning until midnight for several consecutive days. Once the registration lists were complete, residents were notified to collect aid. However, after the first 70 messages were sent, the system flagged them as potential spam, blocking telecommunications service for 24 hours. With distribution imminent, volunteers anxiously sought a solution, reaching out to a marketing entrepreneur and a communications software expert, who quickly offered assistance. Within a single day, 2,000 messages were successfully sent, with Tzu Chi bearing no cost.<\/p><p>On the first day of distribution, volunteers at the registration desks had expected the work to be straightforward, but the five teams had to take turns to step outside to cry. \u201cThe expressions on residents\u2019 faces revealed exhaustion and intense worry,\u201d Leung Hiu Lam (\u6881\u66c9\u9716) recalled. \u201cWhen we asked, \u2018Are your family members okay?\u2019 many immediately broke down in tears. Their homes were gone, loved ones lost, pets too. Exposed to their emotions, we couldn\u2019t help but cry too.\u201d Many residents had already been visiting other charities or managing arrangements for deceased family members, leaving them little time to process their grief or attend to their own health. At Tzu Chi, they could finally pause, while doctors from the Tzu Chi International Medical Association provided care and comfort.<\/p><p>One woman rushed in after colliding with a passerby and dropping her phone onto the subway tracks. Worried about being late and missing her chance to receive aid, she first asked a station attendant to help retrieve her phone before coming to Tzu Chi. Volunteers reassured her, saying, \u201cGo get your phone first; don\u2019t lose contact with your family. We\u2019ll wait for you here.\u201d<\/p><p>Over the two days, 1,543 of the 1,700 registered households collected their aid, with additional payments issued the following week, bringing the total number of households assisted to over 1,800. Of the 1,900 households affected by the disaster, Tzu Chi assisted over 90 percent.<\/p><p>Volunteer Yu Ka Zeon (\u4f59\u5609\u9032), a professional social worker, noted that although the government and social welfare organizations provided assistance, the sheer number of affected residents meant many had to queue repeatedly and complete multiple forms, leaving them physically and emotionally drained. \u201cThey have already gone through a lot,\u201d he said. \u201cCan we help ease their burden?\u201d Tzu Chi\u2019s second phase of aid will proactively coordinate with the government\u2019s \u201cone social worker per household\u201d system, working directly with assigned social workers to spare residents repeated trips.<\/p><p>Unable to participate in the distributions in person due to work, Yu Ka Zeon followed updates on social media. Reading residents\u2019 messages about how moved they were by their visit to Tzu Chi, he couldn\u2019t hold back his tears, deeply grateful to the volunteers who delivered love and care straight to residents\u2019 hearts.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-df39ab8 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"df39ab8\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-8b50263\" data-id=\"8b50263\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c431cf2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-gallery\" data-id=\"c431cf2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;gap&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:5,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;gallery_layout&quot;:&quot;justified&quot;,&quot;ideal_row_height&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:500,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;ideal_row_height_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:500,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;ideal_row_height_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:500,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;gap_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;gap_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;link_to&quot;:&quot;file&quot;,&quot;content_hover_animation&quot;:&quot;fade-in&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"gallery.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery__container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"e-gallery-item elementor-gallery-item elementor-animated-content\" href=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/145-02.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"all-c431cf2\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"1\" e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6ODExMDgsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC90Y21vbnRobHkudHp1Y2hpY3VsdHVyZS5vcmcudHdcL3dwLWNvbnRlbnRcL3VwbG9hZHNcL3NpdGVzXC84XC8yMDI2XC8wMVwvMTQ1LTAyLmpwZyIsInNsaWRlc2hvdyI6ImFsbC1jNDMxY2YyIn0%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-image elementor-gallery-item__image\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/145-02.jpg\" data-width=\"1440\" data-height=\"810\" alt=\"\" ><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"e-gallery-item elementor-gallery-item elementor-animated-content\" href=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/145-04.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"all-c431cf2\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"2\" e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6ODEwNTUsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC90Y21vbnRobHkudHp1Y2hpY3VsdHVyZS5vcmcudHdcL3dwLWNvbnRlbnRcL3VwbG9hZHNcL3NpdGVzXC84XC8yMDI2XC8wMVwvMTQ1LTA0LmpwZyIsInNsaWRlc2hvdyI6ImFsbC1jNDMxY2YyIn0%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-image elementor-gallery-item__image\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/145-04.jpg\" data-width=\"1440\" data-height=\"960\" alt=\"\" ><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e544c95 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e544c95\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>People queue quietly and respectfully to place fresh flowers at a makeshift memorial in front of Wang Fuk Court, in remembrance of those who perished. <span style=\"color: #808080;\"><em>Photo 1: Chow Qing Lan;

But I couldn\u2019t cry\u2014I had to take responsibility and do what a Tzu Chi volunteer should do.\u201d<\/p><p>Seeing the fire rage even more fiercely on the way home weighed heavily on her heart. \u201cI couldn\u2019t sleep that night,\u201d she said. \u201cThe next morning, I urged my younger son to be careful, as he, too, had entered the fire scene for rescue work.\u201d She found solace in volunteering, as staying busy with Tzu Chi helped her cope. She also tried to transform her worry for her loved ones into blessings.<\/p><p>Her elder son returned home a few days later. \u201cHe rarely talks about work because he doesn\u2019t want me to worry,\u201d she said. \u201cAfter the fire started, he entered the fire scene three times. Though he was doing his duty, I still think he was incredibly brave. He told me that our encouragement was the greatest support we could give him.\u201d<\/p><p>Mr. Yu, the elderly resident introduced at the beginning of this article, later visited the Tzu Chi Hong Kong office to collect his relief payment. He told volunteers, \u201cSurviving this fire feels like a miracle. I\u2019m very lucky, but I also feel sad for those who lost their lives.\u201d<\/p><p>This relief effort marked the largest disaster operation in Tzu Chi Hong Kong\u2019s 32-year history. CEO Cherina Sze hoped the cash payments could help survivors manage the immediate aftermath, while acknowledging that material aid alone cannot heal the emotional wounds left by such a tragic event. \u201cRecovery from psychological trauma is a long journey,\u201d she said. \u201cWe hope to be there with them, supporting them as they heal.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-a3c0e38 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"a3c0e38\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4fb119f\" data-id=\"4fb119f\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b2a28b5 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"b2a28b5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1697\" height=\"454\" src=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/PNG7-1.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/PNG7-1.png 1697w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/PNG7-1-300x80.png 300w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/PNG7-1-1024x274.png 1024w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/PNG7-1-768x205.png 768w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/PNG7-1-1536x411.png 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1697px) 100vw, 1697px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-3033b65 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"3033b65\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-56083245\" data-id=\"56083245\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-30cfd410 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"30cfd410\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"189\" height=\"170\" src=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/07\/\u82f1\u6587\u9801\u5c3e-2.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following Hong Kong\u2019s catastrophic fire, volunteers delivered relief and comfort to residents facing sudden loss, \u2026 <a class=\"text-right\" href=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/?p=81134\"><span class=\"text\">Read More <\/span><span class=\"arrow\">\u00bb<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":81059,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"pmpro_default_level":0,"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[917],"tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.5 -
